Pointing to holding the next round of the event in Pakistan, he said that there exist a good proximity between Iran, Turkey and Pakistan which can help establish stability in the region.

Commenting on bilateral talks with parliamentary delegations of participating states in the meeting, Larijani said that he offered proposals for cooperation in fields of agriculture, energy, tourism and implementation of developmental projects.

Stressing the need for bolstering trade relations with Turkey, he said that Iran has set a target of 30 billion dollars in trade with the country. Therefore, necessary conditions for achieving the goals should be prepared.
